We arrived in Florence 2 days before our Tauck tour was scheduled to begin so we had some time to rest and take in some spectacular views from the rooftop restaurant at out hotel. Fortunately, the weather cooperated!

Good set Mark. With the severe weather happening at that time in Italy, you were fortunate to have good weather. Your photos bring back great memories from way back..............6 weeks ago. We had some nice weather too, with a little rain mixed in, including a real downpour at one point near the Duomo.

Thanks very much Dennis. We did have rain the next day as you’ll see in a future post.

Beautiful images, Mark. My wife and daughter went to Italy. I stayed home and later went to Colorado which is more my style. They loved it.
